Why Printer Not Printing from Laptop?

You press print on your laptop, but nothing shows up — this Printer Not Printing problem can happen for several reasons. First, confirm that your laptop is connected to the same network as your printer if it’s wireless. A small Wi-Fi drop can prevent the command from reaching your printer.

Next, check the printer settings. Sometimes the system defaults to “Save as PDF” instead of your actual printer. Ensure your device is set as the default printer.

If you recently updated your laptop, old drivers may no longer be compatible. Reinstalling or updating drivers usually resolves this issue. For USB printers, try switching the cable to another port or replacing the cable entirely.

Another overlooked cause is pending jobs in the queue. Cancelling them and restarting the print command often works.
